The nave was extended and raised to the west at the beginning of the 18th century. Remains of a Gothic St. Christopher fresco and a Bartholomew fresco as well as a wreath ornament running under the roof were discovered on the north facade .
A flat ceiling stretches over the nave. The two-bay choir with a three-eighth end has a baroque groin vault and a pilaster structure .
